CAHP Educational Research Seminar Series
The College of Allied Health Professions has an ongoing charge to work on scholarship of teaching and learning. So many of us have professional and subject matter expertise but are not sure how to move the continuum from excellent teaching to education research. The college has some groups working together on education research. If you are interested in learning more about these groups, please email the Academy.

Reality of Social Determinants of Health: Mateo
In 2019, Nemours Children’s Health conducted a revealing survey involving over 1,000 parents of children under 18. The findings underscored that 32% missed their child’s appointments due to financial or logistical issues, and 23% feared running out of food before they could afford more. This instructive learning module and virtual environment is based on the vital statistics mentioned. The resource is designed to guide future caregivers, medical practitioners, and educators in understanding and addressing these real-world challenges. The website is included to view the module. If you are interested in learning more about this project, please email Dr. Jana Wardian.

Global Health Women's Health Simulation Project
I have access to experts in women's health in Bangladesh who would benefit from using simulation education. I also have experts at UNMC using simple simulators for women's health activities and experience with evaluating them. I would like to create a project to support women's health education in Bangladesh using these connections and tools if a student is interested. The website is included for more information. Email Dr. Elizabeth Beam if you are interested in participating.
